Meditation Tip: Be the Passenger

5 posts in this topic

I want to share a nice meditation tip I heard from Adyashanti.

Imagine that you are in the passenger's seat in a car.  How would you behave?  You wouldn't be steering the vehicle, you wouldn't be doing anything at all.  You would just be sitting back and going along for the ride, right?  Well, you can approach your meditation in exactly the same way.  Let go of control, let go of the meditator.  Be the passenger of your meditation.

This is the experience of allowing everything to be as it is, and the simple path to peace.

That's a good one. Similar to the familiar analogy of being in the audience.

? I also like watching the movie alone, in the darkness of the theater, from the very back seat.

Just because God loves you doesn't mean it is going to shape the cosmos to suit you. God loves you so much that it will shape you to suit the cosmos.
